In addition, The potential for IPv6 to significantly reduce the overall costs of supporting an enterprise-wide network are also very clear as well. ATM portals and technologies are ideal for creating a unified computing and networking platform corporate-wide, especially if a company has operations in several countries, and across continents. The speed and bandwidth considerations of running a global enterprise are also accentuated by this technology, as is a drastic reduction in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for a given network topology that must scale to be global. In addition, ATM could be used for unifying diverse legacy systems into a single, cohesive network architecture that capitalizes on the many information assets a company has (Dunne, Klementowski, 1982). In addition, these networks also make it possible to create entirely new approaches to solving very complex problems in enterprise, including the ability to collaborate and produce new product designs in real-time across an entire enterprise (Soon-Young, Chung, Hyung-Min, 2000).

Evaluation of Experiences

Both also kept the sales pitch to a minimum and created a high quality series of presentations and graphics to illustrate how best to create networks based on these technologies. They also showed how the reality of legacy applications must also be dealt with, and made the tutorials more realistic as a result.
